Produced by <a href="http://theuprisingcreative.com">The Uprising Creative</a> Directed by Jeff Nicholas It’s been nearly ten years since artist and producer Mike Shinoda - founder of Linkin Park - released “The Rising Tied,” the debut studio album from his solo project, Fort Minor. Inspired by his unforgettable experiences over the past decade and the artist within, Mike has just released a brand new Fort Minor song and video titled, “Welcome.” Among the world’s first 360-degree virtual reality (VR) music videos, Shinoda and his collaborators at The Uprising Creative in LA joined forces to fully leverage the power of VR. The result is a unique experience set in Venice Beach where everyone is invited.
